Mikaberidze's scathing satire of Soviet bureaucracy is a genuine piece of grotesquerie, a Georgian version of the antic experiments of FEKS (the Factory of the Eccentric Actor). My Grandmother's most memorable character is a wide-eyed, wild-haired bureaucrat's wife who is caught up in a frenzy of bourgeois living. Her equally comic husband, modeled after Harold Lloyd, personifies the indolence and irrelevance of a State system that resembles nothing so much as a roundtable defended by benighted stooges. When he loses his job, he learns the value of a 'grandmother' - a slang term for the boodle that moves the table round. Forgotten for half a century, this irreverent blast, complete with Constructivist sets and deconstructivist slapstick, has lost none of its bite"--by Steve Seid, Pacific Film Archive program note (November 16, 2002) 546 Opening title card in Georgian; subsequent opening titles in Russian; intertitles and internal signs in Russian. 562 Originally silent; film was revised by L.
